My dear,
Do not let someone else dictate your happiness.
If you want to be overjoyed, be. If you feel the good spirits upon you, let them overwhelm you. Do not let someone else impose on you when the world should receive your happiness. For then the world shall never receive it.
And nothing would sadden the world more than realizing it’s being robbed of you.
Falsely yours,
Leo Tolsoy
